How To Be a Better Internet Marketer in 2009

As 2008 comes to an end, we all get a fresh start in 2009. Whether you're beginning to dabble in internet marketing or encounter it on an everyday basis, here are some basic tips to be a better internet marketer in 2009.

1. Read, read, read! I personally read many blogs daily. If you’re unsure where to start, you can go to Alltop.com where most of the popular blogs reside. There are Alltop sites for SEO, SEM and Social Media.

2. If you’re not on Twitter, sign up! Twitter is a great way to learn from others and interact with people that are in the same industry as you. As soon as you follow one person, see who they follow. You probably follow one person because they’re interesting to you, so you’re bound to find someone else through them that interest you as well.

3. Be a Blogger, or at least contribute to one. Having a blog is quite a task, but if you have a lot to say about a specific topic there is always at least one person out there that will listen. Having a blog is also a great way to test different internet marketing strategies without redesigning your existing website.
